New Shoes
So I got new shoes today. Actually, Kat got me new shoes. As my friend Tony would say, "Their GRRRRREEEAAAATTTT" Yeah, Tony the tiger is good for that. Anyhow, they are alot more comfortable than the boots that give me blisters, and better than the Kswiss that have holes. So I am happy with them. The real test will be work tonight. I hope they hold up.
I called a job offer today. Hoping to get out of WalMart, but not at this place. It is a 3rd party collection agency. Temp for 3 months at 9 an hour and then it is commission. He said most people average 14, but it is in Oxford, so the travel time and money will not be worth it, even if we could afford the 3 months of less pay. So I did the smart and good thing and said no thanks.
I also had an idea today. Maybe the problems with Fran was because my old Ass. Manager was a wimp. He never really puts his foot down and stands up to anyone. Even the associates could walk on him. The new crew is better and two of the three I know will stand up for me. Let's call them Ted and Cameron. Cameron likes to goof off, but get the work done. Makes it fun to be there most nights. Ted is more strict, but has good ideas on how to improve things. He has said that if we have faith in him, the job will become alot easier. I think he is right, but it will be a tough road to get there. Both are good guys though, and I have seen them stand up to higher managers before. I have little doubt that they would again if it is bogus reasons that we get accused of. Makes the job a little less stressful. I still want out, but not as bad right now. Then again, Fran is on vacation too, so it is fun and games for now.
Guess that's a wrap for catching up for now. Still looking, little happier, and the best news, New Shoes!!!
